Description
Day 1: Cusco – Humantay Lake – Quiswarniyoc campamento private After picking everyone up from their respective places or hotels, we leave Cusco around 5:45 to the town of Mollepata by car for 2 hours. Once in Mollepata, we stop for breakfast and also pay an entrance fee of 10 soles to the local municipality. Then we continue by car 1 hour more to Soraypampa where we will meet the muleteers and horses that will carry all the luggage, food and the 7 kilos of personal belongings of each hiker that will be delivered to them in the duffel bags. We start the hike uphill towards the Humantay Lake for 2 hours. When you arrive at the lake, you will have enough time to explore, photograph the place and the guide will explain all the significance of the Humantay Lake. After a couple of hours at the lake, we start going down to the exclusive Quiswarniyoc camp for 2 hours to have a healthy lunch. After lunch you have free time to explore the beautiful area and also, if you are more into hiking, you can go up to the Salkantay viewpoint to enjoy a panoramic view of the whole region. Day 2: Quiswarniyoz – Salkantay Lake (4630M) – Cusco The second day of the trek is a bit challenging because it takes you to the top of the highest point of the entire Salkantay trail to enjoy the fantastic views of the mountains and you will also visit the Salkantay Lake. The cooks will wake you up around 5:00 a.m. with a cup of hot coca tea, then you will have time to pack up again and get ready for the nutritious breakfast served around 5:45 a.m. Then it is time to start hiking to the highest point of the Salkantay trail, which is 4630 m, which takes 3 to 4 hours, all uphill with a slow and steady pace. Once you are at the highest point, you will have time to enjoy the mountains, take pictures and the guide will teach you about the mountain gods and you will also be part of the small Andean ritual for the Apus, the mountain gods. Then you walk back to Soraypampa for 2.5 hours downhill where you will meet the transports who will take you to Mollepara for an hour for lunch and then two more hours to Cusco by car.
